Featured scripture verses are: 1 Timothy 1:15, 1 Timothy 3:3, and 1 Timothy 4:8-9
for Steve's message: You Can Bank On It. Join us this Sunday for Worship! | Bible Studies Sunday Morning: Our next Sunday morning class will begin on August 5th at 9:30.

You are welcome to join in a study at any time! | Garden News The Garden is on summer break. Activity pages are on the table by the Sanctuary doors. Nursery is available for little ones through three years old. | Nerf Battle a Success! Thanks to all who participated and made our event full of so much fun and fellowship! This was a great activity for relationship building...and for seeing each other in a new light. You might be surprised at how good our adults are at Nerf battles! Everyone ended the day wondering when we could do this again. (If you are curious about who came out the winners in the Kids vs. Adults competition, we believe we were all winners since we had fun together...but, really, the adults did beat the kids! Woohoo!) | Youth Group Fun! Bowling is Tuesday! We will be meeting at Camelot Lanes in Boardman at 1pm. If you need to meet at the church and carpool, please let Jen L. know so arrangements can be made. All participants need to bring $6.00 to pay for the two games and shoe rental. If you want your child to purchase a snack there, feel free to send additional money. We are excited to announce a painting adventure, scheduled for August 26th. Youth Group kids are invited to bring a lunch, stay after Worship to eat together, and then learn some painting skills from Adam Pratt. We will provide all the materials, Adam will provide the fun and instruction, and the kids just need to be ready with the willingness to give art a try.

you were doing it to me. Matthew 25: 35-36, 40
